Has anyone had any success using the new Visual Studio Community 2015 with the AnkhSVN subversion client?

All the components (VisualSVN server, TortoiseSVN, and AnkhSVN) are up to date and on the latest version, but attempting to access our Subversion server via AnkhSVN shows the message 'Error running context'. The Annkh forum on CollabNet hasn't any recent references, but an old thread suggests this might be a versioning issue with the new version of VS.

Any suggestions or successes, or will I need to wait for the various components to update to work properly with VS2015?

You need to change the current source control plug-in to AnkhSVN.

Tools -> Options -> Source Control -> Current source control plug-in
